What It Takes

Walking through the streets of my mind,

I walk alone, everyone I know just wanna hide.

I build the houses gray and tall,

and everything, everyone I know is in one of those.

I can stand it here no more,

this city doesn't feel like home. There must be something outside the walls.

If I stay in here, I will die,

never see the world outside. I trust you,

yet I don't know who you are.

Everybody suffer more than they’re willing to say.

That is all I know.

Trust me, I'm scared, like you,

to take a step into the great unknown.

'Cause you broke my heart

too many times to put the pieces back and hide behind the walls.

But if this is what it takes

to finally feel alive,

just take me all the way, and I'll give up. I'm finally giving up.

I see the cracks beneath my feet,

a mirror of the heart shattered from inside. And every step I take alone

is heavy like a stone tonight.
